Why should I not kill somebody? In Germany, there were a bit over 200 murders last year. One more would be less than 1/2 %. And globally it is really negligible. Same logic!

I buy from a German second hand online shop which has a decent selection most of the time. But you often have to be patient if you want something specific. It's not like "I need xyz tomorrow, let's buy something", but more "It's January, but will be hot again in summer. Let's see if there's a nice shirt and summer suit on offer within the next 20 weeks"

As a fellow atheist, I love your bible argument! 😂

I can imagine it's more difficult for women, but as a man I haven't really looked into that. And as an old man dressing more on the "formal" side it might be easier to find clothes, than younger "athleisure" people.

Wenn Menschen unter Stress dazu neigen, andere Menschen mit Lastwagen zu überfahren, wäre eine Unterbringung in der geschlossenen Psychiatrie angebracht.

Wolves had been extinct in western Europe for hundreds of years, only slowly spreading again after the fall of the Iron Curtain 30-something years ago. And, consequently, the hunting quotas for deer are being lowered.

The chaos caused by eliminating wolves is slowly getting back to balance.

By the way: a 100 year old forest is in its early childhood. Hasn't even reached puberty yet.

I'm in Germany, where hunting is highly regulated (not "recreational") with specific quotas which have to be followed (a fermales and b males from species 1, c females and d males from species 2 etc.). No more, no less, and roadkill has to be accounted for.

Thankfully, wolves are slowly coming back, so the quotas can be (and are in certain regions) lowered - but, unfortunately, now wolf-haters show up whining about their sheep because they are unwilling to invest in proper fences and guard dogs, even while both are subsidized by the state.

It's not only wind, you know? There's solar, there's storage, and better grid management and integration.

Days without (enough) wind across the entire continent? Have you got any sources that show that this has ever happened?

USA, for example: https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/images/2015.02.25/chart2.png

Generating fluctuates between 20something and 30something % of the maximum installed capacity. The larger the area, the more the curve flattens.
